When you drive on the dirt/gravel road portion of Hatcher Pass, you'll be going uphill -- way uphill. As in you better be driving in first gear.

The dirt/gravel road portion of Hatcher Pass is very steep, with all sorts of turns and maneuvers.

I like this photo a lot, also. I took it while pulling over to give my car a break on the dirt/gravel portion of Hatcher Pass. It's wonderful to look out, with nobody else around, and just see mountains, and more mountains.

Here's a photo of the beautiful winding road on Hatcher Pass. Beware, if you choose to drive on the dirt and gravel road portion of Hatcher Pass, it's just a little rough, lol.
